This game is a good example of "pushing the advantage", something I often criticize my teams of not doing. If you are on the strong flank, you run the enemy over before they can do the same to you.

hard to agree with you on the second part on his team being worse.. the enemy team has a halland that fed early game, a kremlin overextended into 4 ships (one of which being a kurfurst) and suicided, a hinden that doesnt know how to disengage and keep firing within 10km of 2 bbs, and not to mention that moskva.

Yes, this is something that completely frustrates me. Had a game not long ago where the enemy flank melted and the three survivors were trying to escape back to their team. Instead of pushing up behind them and helping to pin and cut them off them with nowhere to run my team just hid behind islands for 5min where they couldn't even shoot for like 5 min despite not even being that damaged.

@@wombat4191 i understand, but if it work for him them then why not. atleast AP will be reliable but not damage optimal. (your point is for damage optimal) if HE work for you then go for it, sometime it is convenient to use AP because DD will be hidden when they are running away, and you left with HE loaded. sometimes when you use HE that is the best damage for DD and then used it,, the shell take times to fly and it hit turret or other secondary and got no damage. normally people who have high success will become stubborn because they believe what they did is good for themself. the point is shoot the DD, its better than someone spot DD but shooting cruiser for damage farm.

Listen to that at the end again. Shooting AP at DDs guarantees minimum AP damage, which is higher than minimum HE damage. Yes, HE can score bigger hits, but it can also score lower hits. Don't bother swapping unless DDs are all that's left and it doesn't cost you time to swap.

If you have a ship with a high AP alpha, don't switch to HE. If the dd are saturated, you will do less damage to them. The overpen damage is safe, ships like the Vermont, Yama, Incomparable. Ships like Conqueror stick with HE due to it high alpha on it from what I was told in Trenlass Vermont video.

I think it's complementary to highlight what happened at the C cap. Just a quick look at the minimap at 5:00 tells you you're a few minutes away from a 6v3, Bourgogne has a clear exit path behind the island, and petro can just turn away from there. Even if you have to give up the cap they'll never get enough points to save themselves. Now look at 6:00, Bourgogne still hasn't disengaged, instead they moved away from the one island they could use to control exposure, and petro just completely forgot to think. When you can't win a fight, staying alive is pretty much always the best option. I think the reason these players didn't do it is the same reason the kurfurst didn't push, they don't know how to judge the situation and look ahead to know what's about to happen.

Yeah what people don't realize is that when you have pushed enemy out of the cap, and most of their ships are gone except maybe a single DD or a single cruiser. That damn shell of nuts will come back and recap what you have already taken. It's damn dangerous have an enemy ship on the flank while pushing and not caring about it. And most of the teams just ignore flanks! They dont ever try to kill stuff that flank or just "magically disappear" on long range because... hey! There are other BBs there! Let's go farm! -_- no, that's the perfect way to lose the game. And they lose every time the game. And since I'm in those damn teams... I lose the game too! >_< damn these noobs! But... whatever, generally my teams just go in single point leaving the other flank to me and maybe another ship. While I'm generally able to hold for some time the flank, the rest of the fleet is wiped out with no mercy. So... you know... one against an entire enemy team. My chance of survival drops to zero. -_- Every. Single. F. Time.
